  28. Health service financing source • External sources refer to the external aid which comes through bilateral aid program or international non governmental organizations

  29. Private insurance • consumers voluntarily choose to purchase an insurance package that best matches their preference. • offered on individual and group basis. Under individual insurance the premium is based on that individuals risk characteristics. • Under group insurance, the premium is calculated on a group basis. risk is pooled across age, gender and health status.

  30. Community based financing Refers to schemes are based on three principles: community cooperation, local self reliance and pre payment Factors for success of community financing • Technical strength and institutional capacity of the local group • Financial control as part of the broader strategy in local management and control of health care services • Support received from outside organizations and individuals • Links with other local organizations • Diversity of funding • Responding to other (non health) development needs of the community • Ability to adapt to a changing environment

  31. Employer based schemes • Offered both by public and private sector companies through their own employer managed facilities • Mode lump sum payments, reimbursements of employee’s health expenditure or covering them under the group health insurance policy with one of the subsidiaries of GIC. • Workers buy health insurance through their employers taking insurance in lieu of wages

  32. Voluntary health insurance schemes • Are for individuals and corporations • Available mainly through the General Insurance Corporation (GIC) of India and its four subsidiaries- a government owned monopoly. • financed from household and corporate funds • GIC offers MEDICLAIM policy for groups and individuals and the JAN Arogya Bima scheme to individuals and families, mainly to cover poor people. • With Insurance Regulatory and Development Act 1999 and the liberalization of insurance more private voluntary health schemes are expected to be introduced soon.

  33. Challenges with insurance • India linking health insurance with employment is difficult because most people are self employed, have agricultural work, or do not have a formal employer or steady employment. • Many of the poor are excluded from access to high quality health care and health insurance because of inability to pay, lack of knowledge, or other factors, related to geography or discrimination • Too much of cream skimming too in India i.e.selection of less risky groups by insurance companies

  34. Conclusion • Role of health economists be recognized • Health financing cannot be dealt separately as it has got to do with good governance, economic growth, education • Social inclusion and financial protection seems to be provided through community based financing
